FYCO1 cDNA Clone
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a protein that contains a RUN domain, FYVE-type zinc finger domain and Golgi dynamics (GOLD) domain. The encoded protein plays a role in microtubule plus end-directed transport of autophagic vesicles through interactions with the small GTPase Rab7, phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PI3P) and the autophagosome marker LC3. Mutations in this gene are a cause of autosomal recessive congenital cataract-2 (CATC2). [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
Uniprot Description
FYCO1: May mediate microtubule plus end-directed vesicle transport. Defects in FYCO1 are the cause of cataract congenital autosomal recessive type 2 (CATC2). An opacification of the crystalline lens of the eye becoming evident at birth or in infancy. It frequently results in visual impairment or blindness. Opacities vary in morphology, are often confined to a portion of the lens, and may be static or progressive. In general, the more posteriorly located and dense an opacity, the greater the impact on visual function. Pathogenic mutations in FYCO1 can affect intracellular transport of autophagocytic vesicles from the perinuclear area to the periphery, leading to an accumulation of large numbers of vesicles and hence loss of lens transparency (PubMed:21636066). 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "FYCO1, cDNA Clone" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
